When moving home one of the most important things to think about if you have children is also choosing the best primary school for your child. One of the best ways of deciding which school is best for your child is to read each school’s Ofsted report.

Below is a selection of primary schools in the Orpington are with what their latest Ofsted report states.

Most of the primary schools in Orpington have now converted to academy status in the past six years, and by Ofsted standards this is treated as a whole new school.
In instances where no Ofsted report is available before the school converted, we have taken the latest Ofsted reports from before the school was became an academy and noted that it was an earlier report.
